We stayed in this quaint hotel for five nights and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The staff was attentive and professional. The only major challenge is the fact that there is very limited parking close to the hotel. We found a parking lot .2 miles away that was inexpensive and an easy walk. Keep that in mind if you have a vehicle while staying at the hotel. Our room was very clean and the bed comfortable. The breakfast was varied and delicious. We would definitely stay here again given the opportunity…

Wonderful staff and breakfast and spacious apartment. The only problem was the reception closed at 11pm we had our air con on max to cool the apartment down but could not turn it off or change it. We were very cold at night and could not sleep much.

2 night Stay
Our 2 night stay was satisfactory for our needs. We thought the hotel was closer to the City Centre, but it was actually a 30-minute walk. The hotel reception were very helpful in organising a taxi cab for us & in advising about where the various restaurants in the centre are located. The breakfast service needs a little better organisation but that could be easily rectified. All in all a good experience for us.

Too noisy, sounds loudly at midnight…room style isn’t really matching with the picture it showed. Electric shut down always. But Staff are nice and helpful.
Response from Madison Zagreb**** on 6 Jan 2023
Dear guest,Thank you for your review, however we must point out that electric shut down during your stay is a result from some of your private electric appliance that was obviously malfunctioning, and the safety switch shut down the electricity to protect the system. Before or after your stay with us we didnt have a case of electric shut down in that unit, so we would advise to check your private electric appliances for malfunctioning as you might have this problem at other properties where you stay.We are sorry to hear there was noise during your stay, but we had no reports of other guests misconduct at the period of your stay.Kind RegardsFrontdeskMadison Zagreb****

Very misleading description, no pool
Description and pictures are very misleading. There was no pool, rooftop terrace, or spa. These are things offered at their other property Madison Villas. Madison Apartments had nothing like this. They gave us a room that was 2 steps away (literally) from the reception desk. When we asked for an upgrade because we are Gold Members they showed us a few rooms we could upgrade to but wanted to charge us €100. The staff was friendly and seemed to know nothing about their description being incorrect on this booking platform. For the price I would most definitely stay at the Sheraton for the same price and they do have a pool and a better location. The walk into the square is very far! We had to take Uber.

Response from Madison Frontdesk on 8 Jul 2022
Dear guest, We are sorry to hear you had a bad experience with your stay, but we must stress out that we dont advertise this property as having a pool, but our other property, Villa Madison***** has an outdoor pool. In converstaion with you we understood that you were looking at our Villa property but book this one instead, making this a mistake in booking from your end. Furthermore, we stress out that the Economy Double Room that you booked is our most basic unit, and clearly advertised as gorund floor unit near reception, so this information was available to you prior to booking your stay with us. You had an opportunity to book another unit type for a higher amount but chose the most basic one yourself, and our staff was looking to assist you in correcting this mistake, offering you to upgrade to a better unit, but not at an additional cost of EUR 100, but a total cost of unit of EUR 100,00, so having to pay only EUR 15,00 price difference to upgrade, so this was clearly a misunderstanding, where you didnt understand our reception staff. Distance from Main Square is also clearly pointed out prior to your booking as well as exact map location, so we must say this comment is also invalid from your end. Our numerous 10out of 10 reviews prove our high quality of service and units, but failing to book the right property or the right unit cannot be considered our fault.

Stayed in the Spa Suite room. Excellent value for money and the hot tub was of an insane size. staff were friendly, and as a VIP member, they proactively gave me 10 Euro's worth of Drinks, without me having to ask. Location was a little far out from the main central attractions, but only £3 in an Uber so not an issue

We stayed for the first night in the wellness suite which was beautiful which it should have been for the money spent, but then we moved to a standard room with kitchen in and washing machine, the washing machine leaked all over the floor when used, nowhere to hang our clothes that we had washed and then only one of the 2 hobs worked so made cooking an absolute nightmare! Probably wouldnt stay or reccomend here.

Okay.. but not worth the money
Beds are super comfortable. Rooms a lot smaller than they look on photos and whatever you do, don’t book the room with the balcony… one of the staff members live or stay there whilst working and are really noisy as they finish at 11pm and start work at 7am and are really noisy getting ready early hours in the morning and coming home at night after work! The noise lasts until early hours in the morning. They are not considerate when you confront them about it either. Also the staff at breakfast are very rude

Dear Heidi, Thank you for your review. We are very disappointed to read such a bad review, especially since we did our best to make your stay pleasant. We feel its very unfair to point out as negative the mainetenance that is done, as it is an important part of maintaining high level of quality, and in this case, the maintenance which was done because of your request. At any point you could have contacted reception by the phone provided in your suite, about this issue. Our staff was more than helpfull about this issue. The statement that owner or anyone else is living at the property is incorrect, this property is profesionally maintaned and has no residences. We must point out that maintenance done in front of your room was done at 10am, not 7am as stated, in the usual maintenance hours. We also must note that you left without paying the minibar expenses so we kindly ask you to reach out to us to take care of these costs.

Great time, Great Place, Great People
My wife and stayed in the Exclusive Suite, 1 Bedroom, Sauna room. The room had more pros than cons. Overall, it was one of the best hotel room experiences we have had. The room was converted from a day spa use to a hotel room. With that said the room was very romantic. Shower, dry sauna and hot tub in one room and the bed in another room. AWESOME!! The hotel room itself needed more room for luggage, but because of the converted layout, there really is no room for luggage, so be prepared for that. They do have a couple of "closets" but not that works well for a weekend worths of clothes. The room is downstairs next to the kitchen, so that was noisy in the morning, but you could tell, they were trying to be quiet for us. The next morning we shut the door to the bedroom and that took care of the noise. The entire staff was so VERY, VERY nice and polite. What ever shortcomings that the room had the staff made up for it. Damir and Marina really was genuine, caring, helpful and friendly. Just top notch!! Overall, I would give it 4 out of 5 stars. Well worth it! The wife and I reconnected after being away from each other for 5 weeks. We will remember the room, the staff and the local restaurants as well.

Dear guest, Thank you for your review. We know that the stairs are a problem and that’s why we are working relentlessly on the elevator which is in the final phase and due to be done in a matter of weeks. As for the phone issue, it seems that you clicked the DND (do not disturb option) by mistake, on the telephone and that’s why it did not function.

Zagreb stopover
This review is tricky. Positives were comfortable bed, reasonable sized room (though no where to put luggage), small walk to restaurants, good wifi and the young lady in reception was nice. Not so positive was poor air conditioning (room was very warm even with air con at lowest temperature), no lift so had to carry heavy suitcases up stairs and motel looks quite tired. In saying that it was a reasonable price for a one night stopover stay.

Our stay was very enjoyable. The room was clean and nicely decorated. We had a great balcony to enjoy the view. The ladies at the reception were very helpful and nice. The two downsides we found were the lack of elevator with no one to help bring up the luggages to the last floor and the light curtains that let all the sunshine in when we are trying to sleep. Adding an elevator may be difficult, but curtains that block sunlight are a must and were lacking.

Dear guest, Thank you for your review. We are delighted you enjoyed your stay with us and had a nice experience. The elevator is being installed, and should have already been done, but the weather conditions prolonged the works for a while, as it is an external elevator and the works are being done on the back side of the building, so we will have this problem fixed very soon, within a month or two. As for the sun blocking system, all of our apartments are fitted with window shutters, that can be put down so the room is completely blocked from sunshine, that is why we dont have sun blocking curtains, but a system installed within the windows. We are sorry you did not reach out our receptionist to assist you with this issue. Kind Regards, Madison Luxury Apartments****
